How can sulfuric acid be both a result and a cause?

Why do you not test sulfates with sulfuric acid?
I think it's because sulfate is the salt of sulfuric acid. They both have the same ions, therefore have no reaction. Its like adding sulfuric acid to sulfuric acid.
What acid is safer sulfuric or nitric acid?
They are both dangerous. But if I had to choose, I would say nitric acid. Even if sulfuric acid could cause thermal burns along with chemical burns due to its dehydrating properties, it is nowhere as toxic as nitric acid.
Is sulfuric acid hyrdrochloric acid?
No. The chemical formula for sulfuric acid is H2SO4, while hydrochloric acid is HCl. Both, however, are classified as strong acids.
Is dilute sulfuric acid a compound or a mixture?
Dilute means that something is in a mixture. In this case it is a mixture of sulfuric acid and water which are both compounds.
What two acids in pollution make acid rain?
Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides both react with water in the atmosphere to form acids, sulfuric acid and nitric acid.
What do sulfur and sulfuric acid have in common?
They both contain the element Sulfur
Can sulfuric acid neutralize hydrochloric acid?
No, because they are both acids. Sulfuric acid would only undergo an neutralization reaction when it comes in contact with a base (sodium hydroxide, baking soda, etc). When you mix sulfuric with hydrochloric acid, the only thing that would happen is that the sulfuric acid would dehydrate the hydrochloric acid, causing it to release nasty fumes of hydrogen chloride gas.
Is sulfuric acid a bronsted acid bronsted base or both?
It's a Brønsted Acid because it gives up a proton in water.
Can hydrofluoric sulfuric acid be used on windows and concrete?
No, it reacts with both materials
Is 3-hexene equal to sulfuric acid?
There is no equivalence. One is an hydrocarbon, the other is a mineral acid.
Is sulfuric acid and nitric acid strong or weak acids in aqueous solution?
Both are very strong acids in water.
